Sega Mega Drive - Castlevania - The New Generation (Europe)-klopjero View File Sega Mega Drive - Castlevania - The New Generation (Europe)-klopjero Castlevania: Bloodlines, known as Vampire Killer[a] in Japan and as Castlevania: The New Generation in PAL regions, is a platform game developed and published by Konami for the Sega Genesis, released worldwide in March 1994. It was the only Castlevania video game released on the Genesis. The game's storyline concerns a legendary vampire named Elizabeth Bartley who is Dracula's niece, suddenly appearing in the 20th century. Plotting a sacrificial war in order to bring her uncle back to life, she orchestrates the beginning of World War I. Quincy Morris' son, John, and his best friend Eric Lecarde, vow to take up the fight against evil. Together they manage to prevent Dracula's full resurrection. Unlike most Castlevania games, Bloodlines was the first game in the series that does not take place exclusively in Dracula's castle, with most levels taking place throughout Europe. Regional Differences Title Screen Japan US Europe The Japanese title, strangely, is not some variant on Akumajou Dracula but instead simply Vampire Killer.

Nintendo Famicom - Akumajou Densetsu (Japan)-klopjero View File Nintendo Famicom - Akumajou Densetsu (Japan)-klopjero Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse, known in Japan as Akumajō Densetsu (悪魔城伝説?, literally Devil's Castle Legend),[2] is the third and final Castlevania video game produced for the Nintendo Entertainment System. It was published by Konami in Japan in 1989, in North America in 1990, and in Europe in 1992 (some time after the European release of Super Castlevania IV). It was later released on the Wii Virtual Console in the PAL regions on October 31, 2008, in North America on January 12, 2009 and in Japan on April 21, 2009. The plot of Castlevania III: Dracula's Curse is a prequel to the original Castlevania (much like the earlier Game Boy game Castlevania: The Adventure) set a few centuries before the events of the original game. The game's protagonist is Trevor C. Belmont, an ancestor of the original hero Simon Belmont. Regional Differences Castlevania III managed to slip a lot of religious imagery under Nintendo's radar, but all of the game's nudity has been censored. Some graphics and palettes have also been improved. Akumajou Densetsu Castlevania III The nude statues seen on the name entry screen and password screen have been given dresses and their shading has been updated. The vines that were originally on the statues were removed. Castlevania III also uses a much more stylish font than Akumajou Densetsu. Amusingly, the opposite went on to happen in Castlevania IV. Akumajou Densetsu Castlevania III The same also applies to the nude statues at Block 8-01 in Dracula's Curse. Akumajou Densetsu Castlevania III The cross in the intro scene originally had a "glowing" effect surrounding it, which was removed in Castlevania III. Akumajou Densetsu Castlevania III Medusa lost her female characteristics in Dracula's Curse. Akumajou Densetsu Castlevania III Besides the breast reduction, the completely messed up animation frame for her aiming upward stance was cleaned up. Still, three of her animation frames were less than perfect. Her head looks suspiciously mispositioned in one of her aiming straight ahead frames. A few Medusa-tiles went unused in the Japanese ROM, an arm meant for the glitchy animation frame. And a different part of the body found in both ROMs, meant for this frame: Submitter klopjero Submitted 03/11/2017 Category Themes (4:3) HyperBase Version Media Dimensions File Count Credits

Microsoft MSX2 - Vampire Killer (Japan)-klopjero(20170303) View File Vampire Killer, known as Akumajō Dracula (悪魔城ドラキュラ?, officially translated Devil's Castle Dracula)[1] in Japan, is a platform-adventure game produced by Konami and released in 1986 for the MSX2 computer platform in Japan and Europe.[2] It was in development around the same time as the Nintendo Entertainment System (NES) game Castlevania, which shares the same title in Japan.[3] The MSX2 version of Akumajō Dracula was released in Japan on October 30, 1986,[4] a month following the NES version,[5] making it the second game in the Castlevania series. It was the first Castlevania game released in Europe. It was never released in North America. In contrast to the more traditional platform gameplay of the NES Castlevania, the MSX Vampire Killer was instead a more open-ended platform game.[3]The game's non-linear design had a similar structure to Metroid released that same year.[6] The game laid the foundations for the open-ended action-adventure platform gameplay later seen in the 1987 title Castlevania II: Simon's Quest, 1997 title Castlevania: Symphony of the Night, and most 2D Castlevania games following it.[7] Submitter klopjero Submitted 03/03/2017 Category Themes (4:3) HyperBase Version Media Dimensions File Count Credits
